Newly Qualified Teachers
The Loughborough Learning Alliance can offer a variety of services to support your NQTs during their induction period.
Choose from the following options:
NQT TRAINING PACKAGE -
£250 (members and LLA School Direct Graduates);
£350 (non-members)
Lunch and Refreshments are included in each half-day session
- This professional learning programme is developed for those new to teaching. All sessions are delivered by experienced Specialist Leaders of Education and school leaders.
- This gives NQTs an opportunity to network with outstanding teachers from other schools and other NQTs.
- The sessions will complement and enhance any school-specific induction.
- We will be offering Primary, Secondary and Special specific groups.
Teachers accessing the package will participate in 6 half-day sessions spread over the year. Areas of focus are likely to be:
- Best practice and confidence in behaviour and classroom management
- Features of outstanding teaching and learning (including planning, AFL, practical tips)
- Understanding the needs of different learners (SEND, More Able, Vulnerable groups)
- The art of managing people and having difficult conversations/Achieving a healthy Work/Life balance
- Career progression and Next Steps
- NQTs will also be given the opportunity to participate in a school visit, where they will observe lessons and then have the chance to share feedback as a group on what they learn from others.
AND our package also includes attendance at a full day introductory NQT Conference in Spring 2021, organised jointly by the LLA and other Teaching School Alliances. This includes a 2 hour interactive Behaviour Management session led by Keynote speaker Jason Bangbala, as well as talks and workshops led by local, experienced and successful leaders.
APPROPRIATE BODY PACKAGE - £200
It is a statutory requirement that an Appropriate Body is appointed for the induction period of an NQT. The LLA can provide this service and be responsible for making the final decision as to whether an NQT has met the Teachers’ Standards, in conjunction with the recommendation of the Head Teacher.
Those accessing our Appropriate Body package will receive:
- Support and training for the school mentor
- A support/monitoring visit to school
Occasionally, schools request additional bespoke support, which can be provided at an extra cost.

£400 (members and LLA School Direct Graduates);
£500 (non-members)
Access both the Appropriate Body Package and the NQT Training Package, including the NQT Conference too.
